    Fling is the only app in the world that allows you to send photos, videos and text to 50 people at random, all around the world. Users start private conversations in a chat thread after receiving your flings.

    It breaks the barrier of traditional messaging by allowing you to message people you don’t yet know, meaning the app can be instantly used without needing a pre-established network of contacts, friends or followers.

    The app has grown virally to over 4 million users over 11 months since launch with very little marketing input. Over 50 billion flings (messages) have been delivered on the app to date.

    The company has raised over $18m in funding to date.
